Thanks Kay, <orcnote>s inline. -----Original Message----- From: Kay Schenk [mailto:kay.sch...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, September 9, 2015 13:40 To: dev@openoffice.apache.org Subject: Re: FW: [DISCUSS] SUSTAINABILITY: Issue Clearance Quality + Technical Debt
[top posting] Given the breadth of this post, and its implications, I would suggest breaking this up into "sub" discussions. For example, review what we have on QA practices, and involve the QA volunteers in discussion of some of these topics. I realize this may be difficult because some of the issues involve facets of OpenOffice that are not commonly used, or require more in-depth knowledge of particular aspects -- basic programming, for example. <orcnote> Yes, that's a great suggestion. </orcmid> I think we've already had some feedback on the VERY old issues as well. Some of these issues have in fact been resolved, but the issue has never been closed. It may be difficult to determine when the issues was resolved and include that for record keeping in the issue. It would help if many of these old issues could be re-reviewed and determine if they still exist. <orcnote> Yes </orcnote> Just to re-iterate: I think it would help if the overarching topic/discussion presented here could be broken down into sub-topics. And, I find this statement -- > The rate of arrival of new issues is steadily declining from the 2013 > peak. That is not necessarily good news.

It seems rather critical of our QA efforts and development efforts to me. <orcnote> Kay, you're right. There is no information to indicate how it is that with fewer reports, the rate of resolution does not appear to change. It was inappropriate for me to extrapolate without any deeper understanding. </orcnote> On 09/09/2015 11:33 AM, Dennis E.
